Abstract

This article discusses two books that provide valuable insights into the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine. The first book, "Putin's wars" by Mark Galeotti, focuses on Vladimir Putin's leadership and Russia's involvement in multiple wars, including Chechnya and Syria. The book explores Russia's military reassertion and its national narrative of pride and success. The second book, "Russia's road to war with Ukraine" by Samir Puri, examines the factors behind Russia's decision to invade Ukraine in 2022. Puri combines historical analysis with personal accounts to offer multiple perspectives on the strained relationship between Russia and Ukraine. Both books provide valuable information for those interested in understanding the broader context of Russia's foreign policy and the complexities of Russia-Ukraine relations.
